Draught at Schilling Cider House, Seattle
Dark ruby color with pink head. The aroma is dusty, like peppers, light berries. Very dry mouthfeel, I can get some fruit, but it’s indiscernible, the final is dry and a bit astringent.
It kind of has the currant character, that doesn’t work well in the dry, in my opinion.

Bomber from Capitol Beer in Sacramento, CA. Pours brilliant red berry, clear with a pink head that left rapidly. Aroma suggests dark grapey jam. Med minus body. Flavor is tart black currant. Not grapey jam cause it sure isn’t sweet. It’s even astringent. Nice stuff.

On tap at Schilling, pours a hazy pinkish red with a small pink head. Aroma is very fruity, with very dry currants dominating. Flavour is the same, with medium sweet red currants upfront, with a touch of tartness and a lingering puckering dryness. Works well enough. A fruit-dominated (non-apple) cider. Decent.
